sigh... I'm assuming Windows 98.

NTEmacs is somewhat merged with the regular distribution -- there are
binaries (20.4 was the last available when I looked before xmas)

Yep.

    DB> - any special setup instructions I should point my students to

Hmm... Frank I thought had a set; there are 2 sets here, but none that 
is "complete".  There is even some help with the distribution
(basically, making sure that there is Rterm.exe in the usual path).

best,
